FOX 5 Washington DC: Weather Positive Reviews
Not Buggy Dont UpdateThis App ran great until I did the update with ‘bug fixes’ for crashes and load issues. What I didnt have before is now a problem. Crash after crash, Load issues, gps location are all problematic now. Lightning data works very rarely.
Its really to bad there is not an ‘Undo Update’ option for All Apps. Ban the term ‘bug fixes’..StargazerTXVersion: 4.7.1002
Like itI like the alerts and especially like the radar because you can zoom in or zoom out and see what’s coming. I appreciate being able to go to the most recent weather broadcast from the channel as well as being able to go anywhere in the world on the radar. I’ve loved it but occasionally the radar blanks out but that was only recently perhaps the latest update will adjust that.Desiree H SVersion: 5.2.302
Love the updates!The updated app is now my go to weather app! Really like the upgrades in radar. My other radar app was ruined in updates, this is the closest thing to what I like now. I don’t like being forced into watching loops at speed. I need to be able to move the sliders at my own pace! Thank you Fox 5 for the improvements on a what already a good weather app!.76reasonsVersion: 4.7.801
No More Updates PleaseWorked much better until latest update and redesign. . It wasn’t broken. Unreliable now..SvhooD3Version: 4.8.904
BEST WEATHER APP OUT THERE!This is BY FAR the best weather app on the market for the DMV area. I got really angry with my last weather app, and this app does it all as my replacement! I can look at my whole day’s outlook within seconds! LOVE LOVE LOVE! Please DON’T change your app’s look and feel!.Android_fanboyVersion: 4.7.805
Needs More Weather MapsThe app is great so far but it needs more weather maps. I would like to see the dew points and the water temperatures. I also would like to see Wind Gusts on the map..Christopher030207Version: 5.0.901
Fox weatherI love it but in the past few months it freezes many time. I hope an update can resolve this issue. But still a great app.Steve witVersion: 4.5.1802
The new update took a week to get used toThe new update makes everything much more convenient & easy to use.TeyidyygitgVersion: 4.6.900
Problems since update.Not sure what happened but since the last update it has locked up and when widening the view, will automatically return to the default screen. I used to love this app. Not so much now..Rexn8rVersion: 2.6.1
This is the best weather application. ☔☁☀⚡The graphics are beautiful and the fact that I can customize the map to my current location really helps as well as having the overlay. With the storm track option, I can tell exactly where a storm is going which is great for me since I hardly watch television or use my computer or landline telephone. I use my iPhone for everything and love meteorology, but I'm afraid of severe weather so this application works perfect for me. It never freezes and gives me accurate information along with excellent maps and things like the blog and video to keep updated on weather conditions. Thank you to the developer and please keep this in the App Store forever. Please also keep every section that's in the application as well and please don't take any of it away🌸..Cherry~BlossomVersion: 2.0
Finally a great weather appThis app is fantastic!! Graphics are well placed, used available screen for key information. Reading is clear and understandable. App shows that real weather personnel talked to the app developers and they listened..C-SmileyVersion: 2.0
Outstanding!I've tried a number of weather apps and they were okay. I love this app! Accurate, user friendly and the display so much easier to view..Lv2ride13Version: 2.7.10
BlahI don't like the new update. Idk why they changed it from the colorful display to this bland-confusing look. Everything is bundled together instead of the days of the week being clearly separated. Please bring back your other version..Shaki2619Version: 3.5.101
Nice appLove the new app. Would like to get traffic updates and current news as future features..Charty CVersion: 2.0
Most accurate weather!Love this app! Always gives me what I need to know when preparing for the day! Better than the rest!.Owenmr1218Version: 2.7.10

FOX 5 Washington DC: Weather Negative Reviews
Stop Messing With ItI don’t want sleek or cool, just weather! Each time the app seems fine here comes another update with a wacky interface full of bugs. Just make the app simple. No need to watch clips, live weather, or what have you. Just let me see the week outlook, weather for the day, and approaching storms. That would be awesome. The last update is a failure, fix it to make the font a normal not squished size, then leave the app be..KaykaybobayVersion: 4.6.1603
Used to be good new update and the homepage is worthlessI have used this app daily for years, new update and the homepage no longer shows what you want to see. You have to drill into various sections, swipe all over the place, just to try to find the simple information that used to be on the home screen. I am going back to some other apps and another news outlet to get what I was used to getting quickly from Fox 5, so disappointed..RvnewbVersion: 4.6.900
GarbageWorked flawlessly until they put out an update. Radar is completely inaccurate. Shows area is experiencing rain and there is no rain. App notifications woke me with a jarring alert at 3 am for flash flood warning and minimal rain came. Flash flood alerts came every hour another time and there was zero rain that day. Forecasts are inaccurate. This app is now more of an annoyance than a help..WordNerd111Version: 5.0.601
Can’t find anything you’re looking for in new versionThis newest version is the worst. The interface is horrible and you can not find what you want to see. I want to see the live radar when I open the app. It’s so cumbersome to find what you’re looking for. Thankfully there are other weather apps that are easier to use. I’ve been using this as my primary weather app for years. Will no longer be using..Brucemac66Version: 4.6.900
The adsI have used this app for years. This latest app update has a few good changes such as better graphics for current conditions. Unfortunately the hourly forecast has ads in the middle of the hour temps - so distracting and annoying. I would pay to get rid of the ads but there is no option..Ranz2Version: 4.7.502
Could be the bestThis could be the best weather app ... if it worked. The information is arranged to quickly and easily see temperatures hourly and daily without a lot of swiping as other apps require. HOWEVER, it is o longer reliable. Most of the time when I try to use it, the app is frozen.
Would not recommend until the bugs are fixed..5 thosanth nameVersion: 4.10.2004
App constantly freezes at home screenThe app is great when it works constantly freezes on home screen and won’t load very unfortunate as this this best layout for local weather app without a bunch of distracting ads. Deleting and reinstalled three times with no fixing.IWin4LifeVersion: 4.10.2004
Why do you need to access my location all the time?I have relied on this app for a while, but now you require location service all the time in order to use current location settings. WHY? This is a drain on battery, slows devices down and uses data. Looking to find something else now. Thanks a lot..DrizznizzleVersion: 4.5.1602
What happened?This app was recently updated and it stinks. It freezes, kicks you out, and scrolls and scrolls forever looking for information to load on the screen. You have to click on multiple buttons to find what you are looking for. I will be changing Weather apps ASAP..Jab1106Version: 4.6.900
Another app ruined by developers that "know" what I wantI've been using this as my weather app for quite some time, but the latest "update/upgrade" made this app worthless. I can no longer get to the display I want and the presentation the developer chose for me stinks. Sorry Fox 5, but I'm done!.JAK O'SpadesVersion: 4.6.1400
I used to love this appA Tornado was coming through my area and this app never alerted me, not even after the fact. Very disappointing. I thought I could rely on it. All alerts for every weather event has always been set to on..LamareeaVersion: 5.11.501
Another case of “fixes” made worseIt’s now annoyingly slow then requires swiping through windows to find what you want. I’ll be looking for a more convenient app after 5 years of satisfaction..Condor@6410Version: 4.6.1400
Why mess with something that worked?I don’t know who thought I needed to now flip or search for my weather info, but this “new look” is not useful. I have used this app for years, because it was simple to use and get what I need ... now I need a new weather app..MsKat537Version: 4.6.900
Always goes to commercialRandomly goes on commercial while in the middle of feeling the weather /story. Then sometimes will freeze even tho it’s up to date.DreyaaaaVersion: 5.5.702
Weather AlertsI don’t like at all the new home page after I did the update. And on top of that I keep getting alerts for DC and Virginia. I took DC off my cities but still get them. It is very annoying..MimiSandyVersion: 4.6.900

When you developers screw up the app, man-up, correct the issues.

Radar is hallucinating to the point of being dangerousThe radar view use to be decent but has declined to the point of pure fantasy. It has no grounding in reality..PonyFanVersion: 5.8.500
Not good anymoreI’ve use this app for years and just recently it has changed and is very difficult to use. As of today it won’t even open at all! Tired of this app!.NauechoVersion: 4.6.1400
Won’t openThis app was great for a lot of reasons for me personally! Lately I haven’t been able to open it and when it does it’s in the afternoon. Please fix this. I use to love this app, lately I haven’t!!!.Ladyleo241Version: 4.10.2004
Doesn’t work most of the timeEven after restarting my phone, this app just freezes up most of the time..Lisad1971Version: 4.10.2004
UselessI work outside a good weather app is important and this one stinks! Today alone was suppose to be cloudy all day yet here I am baking in the sun! Inaccurate and unreliable forecasting at its best!.Fireace144Version: 5.0.301
Bad updateLoved it before the latest update. The radar map is awful..KimboaterVersion: 4.8.903
Won’t let me deleteWon’t let me remove locations.Reecescup1Version: 5.0.804
TerribleI hate this new update. It’s very inconvenient..LSMDJD526815Version: 4.6.900
Update is Horrible!I used to rely heavily on the Fox 5 Weather app for tracking weather and reliable reporting. Since the update to this new format both have suffered. On occasion you can reopen it when its running in the background and it doesnt update. I then have to shut it down (swipe it up) completely and restart it to get it to update. I can open the app on both my iPhone and iPad and have two different forecasts. How is this even possible? Ads are totally annoying, especially on an iPad. I know they were there before but they stand out more now or are bigger.( I've heard the channel 4 app does not have ads) Finally, I know this is not a fault of the app, but the weather forecasts are way off. Everyone else is saying 5-8 inches of snow and the app says "some snow likely". Really!!.YacketyjackVersion: 3.5.104
Not playing videosThe current version of the app is only playing the paid advertisement and then sits on a blank black screen with no weather report playing. This is while my device is connected to a reliable high speed wifi connection, via Comcast cable..SillyhokieVersion: 4.1.201
Don't like the new updateI enjoy the map function in this app, the main reason I use it. However, the new update is confusing and very poor aesthetically. I give 5 stars for the old version but 2 after the update..YeaaaaahdaaaaaawgVersion: 3.5.101
Don't get alerts on my iPhone went to notifications and it's not even thereDon't get weather alerts on my iPhone 4s went to notifications and it's not even there.Santostefano11Version: 2.0.5
